HVAC Raw Water Filter

Post by Rejoice »

We have found crazing in both plastic see-through bowls of the HVAC raw water filters. The one in the port engine room also has a crack all the way through it, allowing water to leak out (small amounts).

This is not a case of improper winterizing (what PDQ said caused the problem) as we religiously winterize all water systems on the boat down to a -20 degrees.

Has anyone else had this problems, and if so how did you solve it?

We found replacement plastic bowls from both Groco and Surflow that are exact matches for the filter housing on our boat, which PDQ said is made by some company I've never heard of before and who's website did not offer replacement filter assemblies.
